Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physiological Aspects of Sport Training and Performance, Second Edition With Web Resource, updates and expands on the popular first edition, providing an in-depth discussion of physiological adaptation to exercise. Students will learn the importance of an evidence-based approach in prescribing exercise, while sports medicine professionals and health care providers will appreciate using the text as a primary reference on conditioning and performance of athletes. A range of topics are covered, including environmental influences on performance, hydration status, sport nutrition, sport supplements, and performance-enhancing drugs. The book is focused on physiological adaptation to exercise with a goal of providing practical applications to facilitate exercise prescriptions for a variety of athletes. Physiological Aspects of Sport Training and Performance, Second Edition, is organized into five parts. The first part examines physiological adaptation and the effects of various modes of training on biochemical, hormonal, muscular, cardiovascular, neural, and immunological adaptations. The second part covers principles of exercise training and prescription. The third part discusses nutrition, hydration status, sport supplementation, and performance-enhancing drugs. The fourth part focuses on environmental factors and their influence on sport performance. The fifth and final part is focused on how certain medical and health conditions influence sport performance. Updates in this second edition focus on cutting-edge knowledge in sport science and sports medicine, including the latest information on physiological adaptations to exercise; current trends for training for power, speed, and agility; eye-opening discussions on sport supplementation and performance-enhancing drugs; data on training with medical conditions such as diabetes and exercise-induced bronchospasm; and groundbreaking information on training in heat and cold and at altitude. In addition, new chapters offer a practical approach to the yearly training program and sudden death in sport. The second edition also incorporates the following features to enhance practical application and facilitate students’ learning: • A new web resource includes 80 drills and 41 video demonstrations that help readers understand how to implement the various exercises. • Chapter objectives provide an overview of key content in each chapter. • Chapter review questions help students assess their learning. • In Practice sidebars bring chapter content to life in a practical manner and help students better understand the material. Students and instructors will benefit from the new web resource, which features 80 drills and detailed instruction on performing each drill. The drills can be used for a dynamic warm-up or to enhance speed and agility. Most drills are accompanied by at least one photo showing how to perform a key movement of the drill. Forty of the drills are accompanied by a video of the drill being performed in its entirety, and a dynamic warm-up routine video features 10 warm-up exercises. Physiological Aspects of Sport Training and Performance, Second Edition, provides a strong basis for understanding adaptation to exercise and appreciating how changes in program variables can alter training adaptations. All the information in this text is presented in an attractive, reader-friendly format that is conducive to learning. The text serves as both a key educational tool and a primary reference for exercise prescription for athletes.

Book Designing Resistance Training Programs

Download or read book Designing Resistance Training Programs written by Steven J. Fleck and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2014-03-17 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designing Resistance Training Programs, Fourth Edition, is a guide to developing individualized training programs for both serious athletes and fitness enthusiasts. In this updated and expanded fourth edition, two of the world’s leading experts on strength training explore how to design scientifically based resistance training programs, modify and adapt programs to meet the needs of special populations, and apply the elements of program design in the real world. Fleck and Kraemer provide readers with a thorough understanding of the process of designing resistance training programs from both scientific and practical perspectives. As with previous editions, the fourth edition includes comprehensive tables that compare data and conclusions from research on core topics related to design of resistance training programs. By summarizing research and content for the reader, these tables offer a study guide, on-the-job reference, or starting point for further research. Designing Resistance Training Programs, Fourth Edition, is the only resource available that presents the body of research in the field in this organized and comprehensive format. The fourth edition has been thoroughly revised to present the most current information while retaining the studies that are the basis for concepts, guidelines, and applications in resistance training. Meticulously updated and heavily referenced, the fourth edition contains the following updates: • A full-color interior provides stronger visual appeal for the text. • Sidebars focus on a specific practical question or an applied research concept, allowing readers to connect research to real-life situations. • Multiple detailed tables summarize research from the text, offering an easy way to compare data and conclusions. • A glossary makes it simple to find key terms in one convenient location. • Newly added instructor ancillaries make the fourth edition a true learning resource for the classroom. Designing Resistance Training Programs, Fourth Edition, begins by outlining the principles of resistance training and exercise prescription, and examines the various types of strength training, including isometrics and eccentric training. This is followed by a discussion of resistance training from a physiological perspective and an overview of how resistance training programs interact with the other conditioning components such as aerobic, interval, plyometric, and flexibility training. Readers will then explore advanced training techniques, how to manipulate training variables in a long-term resistance training program, and ways to plan rest into long-term training that minimizes losses in fitness or performance gains. An important text for students, researchers, and practitioners, this textbook offers the information and tools to help readers evaluate resistance training programs and better understand the context and efficacy of new data findings in this ever-changing field. Designing Resistance Training Programs, Fourth Edition, is an essential resource for understanding the science behind resistance training and designing evidence-based resistance training programs for any population. This text provides the tools for understanding and designing resistance training programs for almost any situation or need.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine if any difference exists between three training methods for vertical jumping ability on college males. It was also the purpose of this study to determine if any training method was superior in developing the fundamental skill of vertical jumping. Specifically, the following problems were investigated: 1. The effect of selected dynamic exercises upon the performance of the vertical jump. 2. The effect of selected isometric exercises upon the performance of the vertical jump. 3. The effect of skipping rope and jumping upon the performance of the vertical jump. 4. The effect of the selected treatments both within each group and between the groups.

Book Effects of Strength and Plyometric Training on Vertical Jump

Download or read book Effects of Strength and Plyometric Training on Vertical Jump written by Jake Landon and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability to generate lower body power is crucial for success in many sports. This is especially true with sports that contain sprinting and jumping. Training is a key component in generating and enhancing explosive power. PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to examine the effects of strength training and plyometrics training on the vertical jump. A five week program demonstrating the effects of strength training over that of body weight plyometrics will improve vertical jump performance for NCAA soccer athletes. METHODS: Subject were ten female NCAA division II athletes (soccer) volunteering. The study design was divided randomly into two groups. One group performed strength exercises (weighted) and the other group performed body weight plyometric drills. All groups were tested on the vertical jump before and after (pre/post) a five week training period. Both training groups attended a total of three sessions per week. All subjects were highly active and had previous experience in performing various jumps and drills from past sport activities. All subjects have had at least one year of experience in strength and plyometrics training, but had not systematically undergone consistent strength exercises and jumps. RESULTS: Subjects pre-means (SD)/post-means (SD) were the following: weight 64.5 (5.4)/65.5 (5.0); Height 168.7 (4.4) cm; vertical jump (cm) 46.8 (5.4)/49.5 (6.1); power (w) 3713.3 (240.1)/3896.7 (307.0). The WT group increased from pre/post by 3.8 cm. and the PT increased by 1 .5 cm. The findings of this study indicate there were no significant differences in the individual groups (WT vs. PT) but combining the two showed significant differences in vertical jump height.
